Death by war vs. death by starvation.

What is the difference? Over one trillion US Dollars!

In 2009 while the world is still reeling from the economic Tsunami that hit us, while millions of people across the world have lost their jobs, and while the domino effect has driven millions more to starvation we learn that the global military spending is now well over 1 trillion dollars. What does this global military spending do?

It kills more of our fellow men. Would it not make more sense for this one trillion dollars be spent to save lives rather than destroy lives?
